I'm calling this function from my asp.net form and getting following error on firebug console while calling ajax.
Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at http://anotherdomain/test.json. (Reason: CORS header 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' missing).
var url= 'http://anotherdomain/test.json';
$.ajax({
url: url,
crossOrigin: true,
type: 'GET',
xhrFields: { withCredentials: true },
accept: 'application/json'
}).done(function (data) {
alert(data);
}).fail(function (xhr, textStatus, error) {
var title, message;
switch (xhr.status) {
case 403:
title = xhr.responseJSON.errorSummary;
message = 'Please login to your server before running the test.';
break;
default:
title = 'Invalid URL or Cross-Origin Request Blocked';
message = 'You must explictly add this site (' + window.location.origin + ') to the list of allowed websites in your server.';
break;
}
});
I've done alternate way but still unable to find the solution.
Note: I've no server rights to make server side(API/URL) changes.
anotherdomain
support jsonp? Otherwise read this duplicate thread stackoverflow.com/questions/20035101/…
anotherdonain
doesn't support CORS. I'm getting title = 'Invalid URL or Cross-Origin Request Blocked';
message.
cors
This happens generally when you try access another domain's resources.
This is a security feature for avoiding everyone freely accessing any resources of that domain (which can be accessed for example to have an exact same copy of your website on a pirate domain).
The header of the response, even if it's 200OK do not allow other origins (domains, port) to access the resources.
You can fix this problem if you are the owner of both domains:
Solution 1: via .htaccess
To change that, you can write this in the .htaccess
of the requested domain file:
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
</IfModule>
If you only want to give access to one domain, the .htaccess
should look like this:
<IfModule mod_headers.c>
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin 'https://my-domain.example'
</IfModule>
Solution 2: set headers the correct way
If you set this into the response header of the requested file, you will allow everyone to access the resources:
Access-Control-Allow-Origin : *
OR
Access-Control-Allow-Origin : http://www.my-domain.example
in your ajax request, adding:
dataType: "jsonp",
after line :
type: 'GET',
should solve this problem ..
hope this help you
Server side put this on top of .php:
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
You can set specific domain restriction access:
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: https://www.example.com')
You have to modify your server side code, as given below
public class CorsResponseFilter implements ContainerResponseFilter {
@Override
public void filter(ContainerRequestContext requestContext, ContainerResponseContext responseContext)
throws IOException {
responseContext.getHeaders().add("Access-Control-Allow-Origin","*");
responseContext.getHeaders().add("Access-Control-Allow-Methods", "GET, POST, DELETE, PUT");
}
}
You must have got the idea why you are getting this problem after going through above answers.
self.send_header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin', '*')
You just have to add the above line in your server side.
This worked for me:
Create php file that will download content of another domain page without using js:
<?
//file name: your_php_page.php
echo file_get_contents('http://anotherdomain/test.json');
?>
Then run it in ajax (jquery). Example:
$.ajax({
url: your_php_page.php,
//optional data might be usefull
//type: 'GET',
//dataType: "jsonp",
//dataType: 'xml',
context: document.body
}).done(function(data) {
alert("data");
});
If you are using Express js in backend you can install the package cors, and then use it in your server like this :
const cors = require("cors");
app.use(cors());
This fixed my issue
In a pinch, you can use this Chrome Extension to disable CORS on your local browser.

Correct Answer
I have tried<IfModule mod_headers.c> Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*" </IfModule>
and it works like a charm :)
